David,We have made use of splitting an otherwise VERY long pqact file into smaller ones, mostly grouped on feedtype. We have a pqact.conduit, a pqact.nexrad, a pqact.exp, etc.
As Tom said, "It is much better to run several pqacts as long as ..." We also find the benefit of reducing debugging time when something has gone wrong with a pqact action and we know which smaller pqact file was updated most recently! This way also seems easier, at least, to us.

I have a more basic question. Is it more efficient to run a single pqact with a large/long/complicated pqact.conf, or, is it better to run several pqact each with a more simple pqact.conf? Each pqact.conf might access the same product and do something different with it, or eachpqact.conf might handle particular groups of products. (for example you could have a pqact.conf for each software package,or, you could have a pqact.conf for every feedtype.) If one were to split up and reorginise their pqact.conf file would there be a computational advantage or disadvantage to either method? I'm just wondering is there a good reason for splitting up a pqact.conf into several smaller files, or would splitting it by inbeded comments serve just as well?
